Hi Gorgeous!: Transforming Inner Power into Radiant Beauty

Product Information

In the movie "The Dark Knight" (2008) by Christopher Nolan, the character Joker, at a certain point, interrupts a party where there's Rachel Dawes (former girlfriend of Bruce Wayne). When he meets her he says A fan of Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate, Make Up For Ever’s Face and Body foundation, and a great nude lip, Cayne looks to her Maui roots for inspiration. “I was raised going to the beach every day,” she says. “[I love] salty hair that’s tousled. . . . [it’s] natural but high-glamour.” Meanwhile, I've been using the expression "hi beauty" or "hello beauty" when meeting a girl with whom I have a lot of confidence and which I find very beautiful, i.e. a girl which is considered the "beauty" by definition, or the most beautiful girl. Clearly, this is a compliment and a greeting at the same time. Candis Cayne is used to being an innovator. As the first trans actress to land on prime-time TV, Cayne made history with her role in the nighttime soap, Dirty Sexy Money. Opening doors for LGBTQA talent and introducing audiences to her glamorous on-screen persona, Cayne was groundbreaking. Nine years later, Cayne is still leading the way, this time as an author. I was reflecting on the correctness of this expression. beautiful is an adjective and is being used either as a noun or the expression "hello, beautiful" is actually a short version of an expression like "hello, beautiful girl". The second option seems to make more sense to me. I suppose this is a common expression or at least not a weird expression for a native speaker to hear.

Unleashing an inner Evangelista may seem daunting, but the personal beauty routine Cayne unveils in her book is refreshingly down-to-earth. “I want to be able to go to a red carpet event and then run down to the beach and play a game of beach volleyball,” says Cayne, who advocates the power of simple treatments like fresh cucumber masks and a pared down skincare routine.
